Not only does KU bball bridge that gap it surpasses it/wickeddumb

No, I was like 16 years old and didn't focus on the business side of things.

The burned out shell of a hotel? Each school is going to make more money as a result of that initial fire. Was it not reported that FOX was willing to keep the initial contract intact even after the TAMU departure?

If MU can make more money in the SEC dude to the inability to generate any kind of T3 here in the B12, then I can see why you would want to leave. If the school stands to make more money in the B12 than it would in the SEC and be guaranteed stability for the next 10 years, would you prefer MU to stay or leave?

So it's all about the bruised ego for this kid. This is the reason 90% of the MU fans want to GTFO, I bet. Who's kissing your ass anyway, little buddy?

BIG XII might be able to guarantee stability for 10 years (I doubt it, Texas is not willing to commit that long), but no way BIG XII will be able to match SEC money, since the SEC is on the verge of creating an SEC network, which the BIG XII will never have because of the LHN in Texas. So your question is a non-starter until Texas decides to give up on LHN and help form a BIG XII network.

Like I said, if MU stands to make more money in the SEC, by all means, you guys should have been out of here yesterday.

Has anybody in the Big 12 asked for permission to look elsewhere today? Still getting used to the Neinas way of things.

I'd still prefer to leave, but the decision wouldn't be quite as easy. There has already been too much damage done, in my mind, to make it worth staying. The SEC will bring in a ton more in revenue than the Big XII under any model. The SEC doesn't have a history of screwing over our program by allowing shady back-room deals when it comes to bowl selections. The SEC doesn't have a bunch of teams constantly looking for a way to leave the rest of the conference high and dry.

Basically, the Big XII is proposing marriage as a way of assuring Mizzou that the Texas and Oklahoma schools will stop sleeping around the way they did when we were just living together. I'm not having it. If you're honest with yourself, you'd admit that KU would jump to the B1G in an instant if the offer were on the table.

Now is the border-war worth preserving when there is no conference schedule to mandate playing each other, or was all that "rivalry" talk just a bunch of flowery talk that didn't really mean anything?

I'm not sensing much ass kissing, but it would probably be a good idea to put a padlock on the kid's pet rabbit cage, lest it end up boiling in a pot on the stove.

I'm down for whatever is in the best interest of KU.

And what is best for KU in your opinion?

1. "Punishing" Mizzou for doing what you have acknowledged is best for the university by refusing to keep the border-war alive

or

2. Playing a non-con game against your biggest rival even though you are no longer in the same conference a la Iowa-ISU

That depends. Are we going to play MU instead of tOSU for example? If that's the case, I think it would be in the best interest of KU to go ahead and play tOSU instead.

As far as football is concerned, I'd like to keep the Arrowhead showdown.

Only for a few people in the hotel. You are not one of them
